Senior🎓
Top SchoolAllison Symes is a Senior Software Engineer based in New York with eight years of experience building and operating cloud-native infrastructure and automation at scale. She has deep hands-on expertise in Kubernetes, Terraform, Ansible, Docker, and Python, and has managed hundreds of virtual routers and dozens of large Kubernetes clusters in production. Her background blends platform engineering, security-focused automation, and observability—having implemented network monitoring with Zabbix and PagerDuty and automated vulnerability scanning workflows. At Disney Streaming she progressed from Software Engineer II to Senior Software Engineer, and previously supported cloud migrations and CI/CD improvements for The Walt Disney Studios. Colleagues rely on her for pragmatic scripting that bridges networking and cloud APIs, and for clear operational runbooks that survive on-call rotations. Outside core platforms, she brings a knack for translating audit and security findings into repeatable automation rather than one-off fixes.
